Question, how does leveling up Arceus to 100 make it transferable? Unless I'm not in the loop, current methods cause Arceus to be shown as caught in the Mystery Zone and not the Hall of Origin. Wouldn't that discrepancy make it impossible to transfer at all?

I also thought that there would be problems because of the "Mystery Zone" caught location but it turns out if you level it up to 100 in the game you caught it in Pokebank seems to think it's a non Azure Flute event Arceus and lets it through. The Mystery Zone caught location isn't shown in Sun and Moon (or gen 6) which suggests it's removed from the Pokémon's data which would also explain why it isn't rejected for being problematic.

In fact we do have methods allowing the HoO capture. It's just not documented here yet but works fine, although it's longer.

I need to check that again, I seem to remember we had trouble with other routes in french games. Thanks!

In Diamond, Pearl, Platinum, HeartGold, and SoulSilver, there are two "Mystery Zone" headers: 0000 is for maps while 07DC is a caught location. All games afterwards have a single "Mystery Zone" header that goes unused.

I transferred my level 50 Darkrai (from Pearl) to my Pokemon Black 2, but Pokemon Transporter doesn't let it through. I made sure that it didn't know Pursuit, but it still doesn't work.What's the problem?

There are ways to get Arceus found in the right location, which makes it transferable!

Caught location doesn't matter since there is no normal way to catch Arceus only get it via event. The problem is it isn't a faithful encounter (I think) and more importantly it isn't in a Cherish Ball.

I've received another report saying that transfering Darkrai is impossible. Even if it matches the exact conditions of the Darkrai caught in Platinum with the Member Card: same level, same moves, same ability. Is it really something that has been tested before?

I've been unable to test it because there's no other good reason for me to buy Bank. The guy who gave me the information said it was tested and I've definitely seen an Arceus transferred from Gen 4 in Sun and Moon.

It may work with Arceus indeed, and might just not work with Darkrai with these conditions. At least we don't know how to make it work yet. If someone knows, don't hesitate!
